JAKARTA - The PDI-P Regional Leadership Council (DPD) has proposed a number of names who are candidates to be promoted in the 2024 DKI Jakarta Governor and Deputy Governor Election (Pilgub).

One of the names proposed by PDIP DKI to the PDIP Central Executive Board (DPP) is former DKI Jakarta Governor Anies Baswedan.

"All the names that have been netted (to be carried in the DKI gubernatorial election), including Anies," said Secretary of the DPD PDIP DKI Jakarta Deserves Nainggolan to reporters, Tuesday, June 11.

A total of 10 names of DKI gubernatorial candidates were arrested to be handed over to PDIP General Chair Megawati Soekarnoputri. However, Pantas did not reveal in detail who the names proposed other than Anies were.

Some of the so-called PDIP cadres, ranging from former TNI Commander Andika Perkasa, former DKI Jakarta Governor Basuki Tjahaja Purnama (Ahok).

Then, the Chairman of the DKI Jakarta DPRD, Prasetyo Edi Marsudi, and members of the PDIP faction of the DKI Jakarta DPRD, Rasyidi.

Not only that, PDIP also proposed names outside of cadres in the cadre of the DKI gubernatorial election, namely the chairman of the DKI Jakarta Hanura Party DPD, Djafar Badjeber.

"Then there are other names that I don't remember because they are not very popular," said Pantas.

It is appropriate to emphasize that the decision to choose which candidate will be promoted by PDIP in the DKI Jakarta Pilkada this year is the authority of the DPP. He admitted that the DPD PDIP only captured the aspirations of the cadres.

"Later, the DPP will carry out a screening process. Maybe later it will also be assisted scientifically, existing infrastructure, including later survey results," explained Pantas.

In addition, PDIP is also considering the communication process with other political parties to solidify the coalition.

Bearing in mind, not a single party can carry it alone in the DKI gubernatorial election, based on the results of the 2024 DKI DPRD Pilleg votes.

"So, like it or not, such conditions must be considered. So, you can't just insist," he added.
